My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Amethyst! Amethyst is one of the sweetest cuddle bugs we’ve ever met! Amethyst previously spent time at Austin Animal Center in a foster home and has a HUGE volunteer fan club at AAC! A little about our favorite girl: •She can be a little shy at first with initial stranger danger but once she knows you, she demands belly rubs and cuddles •She needs someone who can lead her to confidence and do proper introductions - this may include introducing her to visitors outside of the house •Once she is comfortable to be herself, she loves to play or just hangout with her people on the couch! She lets you decide and is just happy to be your companion •She has been enrolled in Confidence Building Classes and her friends can talk you through what she has learned to maintain consistency! •She is a perfect apartment size at around 50 lbs! •Needs to be in an ONLY pet home (and no cats), although she doesn’t seem to mind dogs •Would do best with children over 12 and in a generally low traffic home •She is house-trained, leash-trained and LOVES water!April 24, 2024, 2:28 pm

Additional adoption info

All applicants complete an application and are interviewed. We then complete all references and do a home visit. Permitting approval, we schedule a time to meet the pet(s) the applicant is interested in. Once a match has been found, we complete adoption contracts and adoption donation. We reserve the right to deny applicants for a particular animal if we feel it is not a good fit. We will suggest an animal that better matches the adopter's needs.
